Nibali wins. And the yellow jersey. Still 14/1 for the GC
|

By:
Fantastic win for Nibali! 120/1 early odds.
Well done anyone who backed him. |
|
By:
Froome looks very strong, Rob.

Nice to see that the crowds where there are no barriers are not all over the road like the froggies will be.

By:
There were a few odd idiots along the way getting in the way, CMAT, but overall they've been very good.

David Millar picked Nibali and never said it on air but was telling Imlach and Boardmman all day he thought he'd win!
|

Looked a great stage on paper and turned out to be great. Chapeau Nibali, nothing much gained timewise, but it's a big win anyway
|
|
By:
That's a shame Wit Ham. Would be fantastic to see.

Well that was a once in a lifetime experience , the Tour De France on the Yorkshire / Lancashire border .
Watched with my wife & junior on top of Cragg Vale , the 6 mile climb out of Mythlmrod. Fortunately the hapless weatherman was wrong again , lovely dry weather on top of the moor. Thousands of people cycling , walking & catching buses up the 3 mile Blackstone Edge climb to the course , was a wonderful sight. The few pubs were rammed before and after the race . The sheer number of vehicles , police / gendarme motorbikes , promotional caravan and the cars carrying bikes was some spectacle. Whizzed through the coverage when we got home .....could clearly see me in my Latics shirt .  In no other sporting arena could you watch the elite performers in their pinnacle event for nowt as they say in Yorkshire.  |

It was great that today's stage was bathed in sunshine for most of the way and the forecast rain never appeared - but we've just had a massive downpour in Stoke and I wonder if it's been raining up there once the race had finished?

By:
Great stuff Sixtwosix!

By:
We were both posting at the same time - and both mentioned the weather!
Has it rained up there since? |

There was a report of a shop that made 3 months profit in the space of one day.
Have they put up all the prices like the thieves at Cheltenham do when the Festival is on? |
|
By:
No , Tommy , weather got even better.
|
|
By:
Ah. Just Stoke weather - as usual - then.

can't believe the crowds. Staggering. Ridiculous Imo. Akin to mass hysteria. What's the point, all you'll see is 10 secs of cyclists and preceded by and followed by 30 mins of motorised cavalcade. Complete waste of time and overhyped nonsense. |
|
By:
You're a complete waste of time, and full of shyte nonsense.

By:
say what you feel man, don't beat about the bush ! |
|
By:
Do these breakaways just happen on instinct or do you think certain riders/teams get together before hand and plan it?
|
|
By:
For once i agree with facts

It's rumoured that by the time the riders leave the Olympio Park area, Team Mogadishu will have vanished into thin air.

You can see from that video why Froome said he was covered in goose pimples on day two, Fishy.
Fantastic crowds. Made today's French turnout look very poor. I reckon they should re-route next year's Tour de France wholly in Britain! |
